Definitely been needing this to recharge my batteries and figure out some things. It's not going to be easy but at least I don't have to go to work for a while. Oddly enough I was a little anxious about it that morning after I left work once it sunk in. Has anyone else felt conflicted about vacation time?

When, or if you set time aside to take care of yourself or do something for yourself, what do you do? I'm realizing I don't really have any "healthy" ways of relaxing outside of work, so drop whatever you got. It's starting to affect my personal life and I'm worried I won't be able to have healthy relationships unless I can take care of myself first.

My partner and I are looking to move from NYC to Dallas in 2022. I’m in big law and he is a public interest lawyer.

It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.
